Chapter 1544 Who Is the Boss?
The branches sticking out from the tree trunks occasionally cut Nicole’s arm and neck. She walked past as if she did not feel it.The tall and thin man behind her narrowed his eyes, laughed lightly, and followed with a fast pace.Nicole did not know the way, yet she still went first when he told her to.How stupid!The tall and thin man intentionally guided the direction. They did not say anything on the way. Nicole was tired, hungry, and thirsty, but she did not say anything.She felt herself shivering all over, but she had to grit her teeth and endure it.If she fell into the hands of those thugs behind her, it would not end well.The air was stiflingly hot and humid. Nicole tried to ignore the discomfort as she walked forward mechanically.She thought that they had to walk until dark, but the tall and thin man in the front left side of her pursed his lips. His eyes had a smug gaze as he said, “Here we are.”Nicole was surprised. She looked ahead and saw a bright, open space
Chapter 1545 This Damn Place
Nicole’s brain was spinning extremely fast, but her body was so tired from walking for too long that she could barely open her eyelids.She did not know what they drugged her with, but the after-effects were too strong.Nicole simply could not resist the drowsiness, exhaustion, and soreness.Unknowingly, she fell asleep in the car.The man on one side opened his eyes alertly. The driver in front of him met his sharp gaze from the rearview mirror.The two exchanged a glance, and the car drove off in another direction.After an unknown amount of time, Nicole was awakened by the bumpy ride.Nicole’s eyes snapped open. She really hoped that this was a dream.Unfortunately, it was not.The road was bumpy, surrounded by dense woods and tall weeds that were as tall as half a human.There were no high-rise buildings or congested traffic as far as the eye could see.It was similar to the countryside.Nicole came to his senses in an instant. ‘What kind of place is this?’“You’re awa
Chapter 1546 Taking the Initiative to Contact
The inside was spectacular.The extremely well-designed house with a blend of modern and traditional styles. There was a natural sense of rusticity.This place looked like it was suitable for monks, not arms dealers.Nicole recollected her thoughts and followed him inside.A woman with a beautiful figure went over to the man. The fragrance was so strong that it seemed like she sprayed several perfumes.She looked like a typical Southeast Asian beauty that was sexy and voluptuous. She was extremely gorgeous.“Honey, you’re finally back! I missed you so much…”She jumped into the arms of the tall and thin man.The man laughed, slapped her on the ass, and picked her up for a passionate kiss. After he had his share, he let go of her.The woman slumped shyly into his arms, looking dissatisfied.The man wrapped his arms around her waist and wanted to press her body against his.Nicole stood there somewhat awkwardly. She did not want to watch a live show.Could someone just settle
Chapter 1547 Unconditional Consent
The man looked at Nicole with cold eyes and put the phone to his ear.“Mr. Ferguson, our supposed friendly meeting was ruined by you. Do you regret it?”If Eric was really engaged to Angie, then they would have been sitting together cordially for dinner at that very moment.Eric’s voice sank. “Caleb, what do you want? Just say it straight.”The man laughed lightly and raised his eyes to look at Nicole coldly.“Mr. Ferguson, you’re not as cold-blooded and heartless as what Angie described. You’re very affectionate toward Ms. Stanton.”His tone was mocking.Eric suppressed his anger and impatience. Eric did not dare to provoke him because Nicole was in his hands.“Caleb, you’d better make sure that every strand of her hair is intact. Or else, I’ll make sure Angie gets a terrible death.”Rage and hatred surged in his chest. Eric did not care if what he said was overstepping the limit.The man’s face sank instantly.“You dare?!”Although the two men were separated through the p
Chapter 1548 He’s Caleb
Mitchell frowned and immediately realized something.“There’s news about Ms. Stanton?”Eric nodded seriously. “Tell the Stanton family that they don’t have to worry. I’ll bring her back safely.”Mitchell nodded joyfully. “Understood. I’m glad that Ms. Stanton is okay.”He paused and hesitated. “But are you going by yourself? That’s Caleb’s base camp. If you’re not prepared, you might be in danger especially since Caleb hates you so much…”Eric took out a spare from the drawer. His gaze was indifferent. “I’ll find help. Go contact the Security Bureau and get them to send Angie over later.”Mitchell hesitated. “Wouldn’t it be a waste of effort to send her back? Besides, the Security Bureau may not necessarily listen to us…”Eric’s tone was cold and firm. “They will because I’m going to take them to the real Caleb.”Mitchell was astonished. At that moment, he did not say another word and went to make preparations.Everything was arranged properly.The moment Eric was about to bo
Chapter 1549 Change Your Clothes
Clayton was going crazy looking for Nicole these days. At first, he was extremely panicked, but when he calmed down and analyzed it, he knew that this incident was not really directed at Nicole but Eric.Thus, his people have been keeping an eye on Eric.Sure enough, Clayton knew about the call from Southeast Asia as soon as Eric answered the call.All those hacking techniques that Clayton had learned earlier in his life were now very useful.Even if Grant did not tell Clayton that Caleb had contacted Eric, Clayton still had a way to find out.The international number had been specially processed, but it was not difficult to investigate it.Clayton also knew that on the night of Eric’s engagement, Eric went somewhere else and did not attend the engagement ceremony.Indeed, it was a very clever trap. With Angie’s identity, the Security Bureau was probably the last place she wanted to go.Not to mention, Angie was armed with a gun and injured people, so she could not get away wit
Chapter 1550 Asked Too Directly
Nicole looked at the woman in front of her who had such charming eyes that could seduce people.There were very few men who could resist such a woman.“You’re his girlfriend?”The woman scratched her head, flipped her hair, and smiled.“Yes and no. He has many other girlfriends like me. It’s just my turn now. He could have all kinds of women he wants, so why would he stick to one girlfriend?”Nicole closed her mouth. She forgot that she was in the territory of an arms dealer.How could she think from a regular person’s perspective?The woman stared at Nicole. “Actually, you’re also very beautiful. Didn’t Caleb sleep with you?”Her gaze was sincere without a trace of jealousy. She was purely curious.Nicole’s face changed. She immediately retorted.“No, of course not! I’m a hostage, so how can he hurt me?”In fact, Nicole was not very confident when she said these words.So far, she was only safe and sound due to her good luck.If Nicole ran into an unreasonable person, she
Chapter 1551 Shoot Her if She Doesn’t Behave
Nicole paused, thought about it, and followed over.It would be impossible for her to run now.After all, she could not outrun a bullet.The man walked over slowly and leisurely with his men. His gaze swept sharply over Nicole’s body.“You brought her out?”The woman nodded and smiled. “She was locked up in the room. Even if she’s not scared to death by you guys, she’ll also scare herself to death! I thought that she might as well come out for a breather. We need to give preferential treatment to our hostage!”Caleb sneered. His eyes were cold and sharp with a layer of gloom. “How kind of you.”He fumbled with the gun in his hand and aimed it at Nicole as he looked at her. “Aren’t you afraid that she’ll run away?”Nicole’s face tightened slightly.The woman laughed joyfully as she pulled out a pocket pistol from her chest and spun it around in her hand.“What are you afraid of? If she doesn’t behave, I’ll just shoot her…”She said it as a matter of course as if she had long
